gory details
I know its been awhile since I've written. I was really busy with house stuff. So here's the update:
July 6: I interviewed someone for Adam's position. This was weird since i've never been incharge of an interview process before. It went well, just felt weird to be the one leading it. In the evening I worked to get my bedroom ready to be painted.
July 7: In the evening I ate dinner at church. I was happy that they had a non-meat option; peanut butter an jelly. Then I had MYF it was a bible study to prepared for our trip to Kentucky.
July 8: This was a busy day. I had another interview. It went ok too. Then in the evening I attended a Body Shop party at Lynley's house. Krista Martin was the consultant and did a great job. The next stop was EMU for a youth event at VA conference. We played games and hung out. It was a lot of fun. We even taped Aaron to a pillar.
July 9&10: I took the day off to paint my bedroom. I also spent some time getting new tires. Did you know that the new thing in tired is to fill them with nitrogen. Well that's what i found out. Painting turned out to be a pretty big job. Between prepping the room and getting tires, I didn't get started until 3:00. Patty came over in the afternoon to hangout and keep me company. Around 7 we stopped to eat chinese food with Connie. I finished the second coat in the bathroom around 8:30 So around 9 Mom and Dad came over to help me put up my bathroom mirror. It was super heavy. I kept at it until 1:30 when i had finished the first coat all over and the second coat of edges. I laid down for a nap on the couch but didn't sleep very well. So at 4:30 I got up and finished the second coat, made my bed and went to bed around 6:15.
I slept until 10:30 when i drug my weary body out of bed. It felt like i had been hit by a truck.After a little while, I ran over to Adelphia and visited Connie. She hooked me up with the new digital box that can record shows. Its awesome. I worked on getting it hooked up and napping. Then it was time for the Sunday School picnic. There was so much yummy food! I loved Steph's broccoli salad; she was nice enough to let me take some home. I also got to hold Nevin until he fell asleep. What a sweet little boy.
After the picnic, Patty and I did some shopping. I found a couple of shirts at Kohls and a perfect shower curtain. The best find of the evening was two pairs of pants at Express that were on sale for $20 (usually they are $60)! When I got back home, I spent a little time putting my room back together.
July 11: All week I had been planning to attend the sunday morning service at conference, but i talked myself out of it. Instead I had breakfast with my Sunday School class at Golden Corral. I was fun to see everyone again. I especially enjoyed holding Simon. He is a sweetie. Then Patty and I did some more shopping. I was on a quest to find an acceptable duvet cover. But alas, none were to be found. Then it was time to finish getting the bathroom and bedroom back to normal. Dad came over and put up the new towel racks. Now normally I would have done this myself, but I tried in the downstairs bathroom and I did ok. But Dad does that kind of thing so much better than me. So what i'm saying is that i'm self-sufficiant, but I asked for help because I have someone I can ask. He also did an awesome job! The room looks really good if i do say so myself. I am very happy with the color. It looks so much better.
July 12: Time to go back to work. It was a busy day. I hired Jon Leichty as our new User Services Tech/Programmer. I think it will be a really good match. In the evening Amy made dinner for our small group. It was yummy. I took off early to do some shopping with my mom. We continued the quest for a duvet cover. I have officially decided to give up for now. There just aren't any around with the right dimensions and the right color. I did find a silver trash can that wasn't $30.
July 13: Today was another busy day. I had to make "the phone call" to the person we didn't hire. It went ok, but I sure don't need to do it again. Work was pretty ordinary. In the evening I met Cathy and Patty to go for a walk. WE had fun catching up with each other and pushing Nevin.
So that's all the news fit to print. :)
